The spring-loaded ball engages a strike to provide controlled resistance, and the adjustable tension allows the installer to dial in holding force to suit the door weight and traffic frequency. Constructed from solid brass, this catch is suited for interior doors in commercial and residential applications where a low-profile, reliable retention solution is required. Installation is handled by door hardware installers or general contractors during new construction or retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 345B26D fits standard interior door applications where a traditional latch is not needed or desired — common examples include passage doors, cabinet doors, and lightweight closet or utility doors. Its compact footprint at 2.5 inches in length and 1.5 inches in width makes it well suited for doors with limited edge or face space. The satin chrome finish coordinates with 26D architectural hardware throughout a project, making it a practical choice for finish-consistent door schedules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid brass construction for corrosion resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjustable ball tension to match door weight and usage frequency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSatin chrome (26D) finish for coordination with architectural hardware schedules\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile: 2.5 inches long, 1.5 inches wide, 1 inch tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually; available in case quantities of 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ball catch for standard interior passage doors and lightweight cabinet or utility doors requiring low-profile retention hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a door hardware installer or finish carpenter using standard boring and fastening tools. Mortise or surface-mount the catch body per the manufacturer template, ensuring the strike is aligned with the ball centerline for proper engagement. Adjust the set screw to achieve the desired holding tension before final door hang. No special tools or trade licensing are required, but installations in commercial occupancies should conform to applicable building code hardware schedules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Satin Chrome (26D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSales Unit\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: IVES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 345B26D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IVES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538392678706,"sku":"345B26D","price":17.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e45c7134b0e73961fe77353863024854.jpg?v=1785824294","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ives-345b26d-adjustable-ball-catch-satin-chrome","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
